    This is our 4th visit and we’re lucky to see chef Perry in the kitchen every time. The restaurant is full with dynamic vibe. Friendly attentive service as always. Quality food produce with excellent cooking churn out tasty dishes. I love the garlic bread and boiled greens - something simple but done great and almost perfect. My partner love the flourless chocolate cake - she reckoned it’s the best since Merivale’s Lorraine’s Patisserie has closed. The signature dishes were tuna with avocado cream and wagyu rump with anchovy butter - so tasty that we both keep praising it and want more. However we’re a bit let down by the pearl perch - it’s a bit overcooked. Overall another great dining experience and we for sure will return.
